Provenance

Where it came from

The Clockwork Avian was first released in 2000 as part of the Beatdown Battle Royale box set, a standalone product designed to introduce players to the mechanics of Magic: The Gathering through a pre-constructed, flavor-heavy duel experience. As a member of the artifact creature sub-type, it reflects the game's broader fascination with mechanical, tinkerer-themed aesthetics that were prevalent during the Urza's Saga era of card design.

The artwork was commissioned from Randy Asplund-Faith, whose intricate, painterly style brought the metallic and anatomical qualities of the construct to life. His illustration captures the industrial, brass-heavy sensibilities of the card's lineage, aiming to evoke the feel of an automaton that occupies the space between clockwork machinery and biological bird. The card was received as a functional, if niche, addition to artifact-themed decks, appreciated primarily for its utility in strategic maneuvering.
